Re: Big Ten > NCHC
When you can't figure out that the B1G has ZERO national titles (and why that is)...you shouldn't be calling anyone simple minded.
Oh I know exactly what you weak *** SCSU fans are trying to do, you are trying to limit the conversation to the last 4 years, that is the ONLY WAY you have a chance. It's pathetic. It's a school that hasn't done anything of any significance and whose fans are desperately trying to argue that their school is relevant in some way.
1 frozen four in all of history???
The B1G is far more than a one sport only conference, in a niche sport at that. The NCHC, can not claim the same. Outside of Men's college hockey, a minor niche sport, it does not exist. The B1G does, and has for a very long time. And has totally transformed the country you live in, unknown to you it seems. The B1G has totally transformed YOUR life, unbeknownst to you.
You SCSU Men's Hockey fans sometimes act like Men's college hockey is all that matters in the world?! Or you want to believe that's that case??? That's the fantasy world you live in???
Despite the fact that SCSU hasn't done anything REAL. SCSU still hasn't gotten to it's 2nd Frozen Four.
You diss any talk of the NHL or the Olympics, and those are hockey related topics. But that is only because SCSU hasn't contributed to either in any kind of a significant way.
Not in the past, and not recently, either.
From 1951 until 1981, Mich, Michigan St & Minnesota were in the same conference. From 1959 until 1981, Wisconsin joined them and they all kept Big Ten Standings.
Go look up their year to year results at Wikipedia and you'll see where each of the 4 teams finished in the Big Ten standings all of those years.
B1G hockey is not a new idea. It's been around for a very long time. The NCHC is the new idea, born out of desperation, NCHC took in who it could those who were available, & basically just winged it since. They got lucky and found a couple programs that weren't depleted by the NHL yet.
But my guess is you didn't know this, did you? Either that or you want to ignore it, because its inconvenient to you?
Did you honestly think Michigan & Michigan St have always been a part of the old CCHA??? lol
The CCHA was a bs creation that was bound to fail, and it did.
But the B1G has been around for a very long time and will NEVER go away. Not until colleges and universities do. The B1G is bigger than everyone in the forum combined, times 1000000.
Sure, most of that does not apply directly to men's division 1 college hockey, but indirectly it does. Only losers with no significance in the world do not recognize this. IS that you, SCSU fans???
